If you get a chance, head on over to BlueJar and read a new post entitled How to Buy a WordPress Theme. It has some interesting points that shouldn’t be forgotten when looking into spending some bucks on a theme, particularly how to make sure you only purchase a great theme.
Probably the most valuable part [...]
While doing my daily once-over of the WordPress Theme Viewer (to see what themes should be highlighted) I noticed a steep decrease in the number of themes added over the weekend. Moreover, I noticed something interesting about the number of pages listed at the bottom of the page.
And this is only what I was able [...]
A week or so ago I participated in a blogging project through Daily Blog Tips called Blog Project Three. The results of the contest can be seen at the final list at DBT, where over one hundred entries were submitted. Not too shabby!
Part of the contest involved choosing your favorites from the final list. [...]
A post by Matt today over at the WordPress Theme Viewer caught my attention. They will be beginning work on the next version of the Theme Viewer, with some pretty exciting updates. It sounds like there is still much to be hoped-for, but it’s definitely a step in the right direction.

I haven’t done a very good job of hiding my opinions about the default WordPress Theme Viewer. I have to say it is a bit frustrating at times. To do my part, I would like to begin featuring some of the best themes each day, to lighten the load on the part of the user: [...]
Ever find yourself reusing elements from previous designs when starting up Photoshop to create yet another WordPress theme? Whether you have that issue or not, apparently others do.
Area381 has released their starter PSD for creating WordPress themes. Basically it’s a PSD where…well, check it out for yourself below.
